    Did they give a reason? I would prefer the Friday show to Master Tape theater.

    Another question: where did "Hey Now" come from? I have been meaning to ask someone that since I started listening.

    They didn't give a reason. I prefer the Friday Show too, even with that douche bag Ralph.

    I don't know where Hey Now came from. I've only been listening since 04. It's probably just something Howard said and it stuck around

    Maybe "Hey Now" came from Larry Sanders.

    They give no reasons why they do some things. The Friday show was great and they should still do it instead of Sir Hard N Thick.

    Hey Now was Hank Kingsley's catch phase from the Larry Sanders Show.

    The name Sir Hard N Thick does make me laugh.

    Personally I think the show has been better than ever. So many factors, so many contributions, no restraints. I love it. Go get Sirius. Worth every penny.


    Anyone else notice all the Sal and Richard gay stuff has come to a fast hault. Not that I'm complaining, but it was happening everyday for a while.

    I agree, although I will say that they do things just because they can do them. For example the Simbian. It was great the first time but when every single girl that comes into the studio does it it loses it's uniqueness.

    Yes I noticed and thank god. Not that it wasn't funny, but it was getting a little old.

    It really is funny. And the show is replayed all day so you have many chances to catch it. Right now I just got finished listening to the News and now I am listening to the beginning of today's show, which is great for me because my favorite parts of the show are just the cast chatting without guests, etc.

    With all the music, sports, and Howard you won't regret getting it. Plus I think you can get just an internet subscription.

    Also, Howard's rant about going to Ed Bradley's memorial was hysterical. Long story short, he was invited by Ed's producer and when he got to the church he was seated at the back instead of up front with the other celebrities/dignitaries. He must of ranted for an half an hour. What pissed him off the most was that Gayle King was seated up front when he wasn't and frankly I agree with him.:)

    I agree. It was hilarious when he got to the part about Gayle King and he was yelling because he was so pissed!

    How about Gilbert yesterday. I've never heard him be so mellow and out of it. His phony phone calls are some of the best lately.

    Getting married and having a baby! I'd be mellow too;)

    His laugh that Fred uses cracks me up every time

    I'm with you. I can't stop laughing. His Dice impressions were the best ever!

    Yeah the Dice impressions are great. Gilbert annoyed me yesterday though because he wouldn't answer any of Howard's questions. It would have been fascinating to hear what was really going on.

    The Scott/Howard fight was great as was the Artie/Ralph fight.

    Agreed!! Artie and Ralph was great!

    You going to see the Killers of Comedy in Sac?? Got my tickets yesterday. I want to meet Beetlejuice! I met Rev. Bob back east, the dude is nuts.

    I thought about it but I'm not going to go.

    Last night I watched the fight between Howard and Lisa G and Penny about Christmas gifts on Howard TV. It was great. The show is at its best when people are fighting.

    I think we need to accept that now that he got the tapes back we will never hear a new show on Fridays. :( And frankly, I wish they wouldn't just play the old shows in their entirety. I liked the Friday Show when Gary and others would talk about the old stuff.

    I'm gonna say it......I HATE Mastertape Theatre. I just don't think the shows hold up well over time. I'm all about the here and now. Not shows from friggin' 1988! *end rant*

    The Friday Show was way better imo.

    I think the MTT sucks too. Those shows are way too old. I wouldn't mind listening from shows from 1998 -2004. The Friday Show was great.
